DonSchado / layer-css

Created November 23, 2014 07:00

Different depth of nodes will use different colour allowing you to see the size of each element on the page, their margin and their padding. Now you can easily identify inconsistencies.

	* { background-color: rgba(255,0,0,.2); }
	* * { background-color: rgba(0,255,0,.2); }
	* * * { background-color: rgba(0,0,255,.2); }
	* * * * { background-color: rgba(255,0,255,.2); }

DonSchado / example_spec.rb

Last active December 22, 2015 20:18

Thoughtbot retracted their initial implementation of strong parameters matchers in v2.0.0 of shoulda-matchers, so we decided to build our own until new official ones are released. The following is a small matcher for testing what params should be permitted in controllers. The matcher's syntax is based on validation matchers. If you're not follow…

	# assuming your subject is the UsersController with a method user_params

	describe UsersController do
	describe "params" do
	# per default the matcher extracts the subject and params method
	it { should permit_params(:email, :name, :role) }

	# to overwrite the params method use explicit .params_method()
	it { should permit_params(:first_name, :last_name).params_method(:other_user_params) }
